Wheel/Tire Options
 
So it has been brought to my attention that there is little to no aftermarket wheel options that fit the (4x110) bolt pattern of my 1985 FB GSL.
I've looked high & low but I admit that I haven't looked all the way in the middle.
So far the only two options that I have been able to find are:
- KONIG // REWIND
- ROTA // OS MESH

Does anyone know of any other wheels that would fit a 1985 FB GSL?
Any advice is greatly appreciated thank you.

Me personally I like the way the 7 looks with the factory 13s but I will choose the Rota OS Mesh before I choose the Rewinds......I think they are butt ugly and everyone has them......IMHO......

I definitely like the OS MESH better but I haven't been able to find where to buy them. May have to go straight to the source. The OEMs that I have are clapped, I'm looking daily to find any other options besides the 3 that I've found.

Mazdatrix will sell you some Panasports, which are better wheels than Rota or Konig.
They have 15s and 13s. 15s are MUCH easier to find tires for, though.

Imagine doing a Turbo II brake swap and rolling around on 5 x 114.3 . ;) *wink wink, nudge nudge*

Yoooo!
I like your style..idkw I didn't think about that 😉
Good looking out on that GENIUS idea...
I'm still pretty new to the whole Rotary thing but I know that that is something that gets done all the time to other older vehicles.
Thank you for your insight. It is much appreciated.

My oem 13s we're really bad.....but I worked on them....hard and got them refinished..... I was going to polish them after all the sanding but everyone has the polished.....so I painted them......and if I want later down the road I can strip them bare again and polish them.....but I like the look.....

It's easier than spending a grand on wheels and then get tires.....

I love the way my 13s look.... I also got a set of Draglites in 15x3 and 15x8 in storage....

Yeah, that definitely has that 80s vibe to it. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the bolt pattern a 4 x 108 on the Draglites? I wasn't able to find and that were for a 4 x 110

I've never been sure about the pattern....I think they are 4x108....but I had them on and they fit perfectly 🤷‍♂️
